GPHC Board Elections
Every October, the members of the GPHC elect one-half of its Board of Governors. All dues-paying members of the GPHC are eligible to serve on the Board. Individuals should nominate only themselves. Please contact the GPHC Executive Director, Robyn Fishman, at director@greaterparkhill.org or 303-388-0918 if you are interested in serving on the GPHC Board.
Dues can be paid online, by mail or at the annual meeting. Next year’s officers and Executive Committee will be formed from those elected to the Board of Governors.
At the October 3rd meeting, elections will be held for Representatives of Districts 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 and three of the six At-Large seats. To represent a district, you must live within the boundaries of the district. To serve as an At-Large member, you need to be a member of GPHC and live within the neighborhood.
Dr. J. Carlton Babb’s Award Nominations
Nominations are sought for this year’s Babbs Award recipient, a Park Hill resident who has made a significant contribution to the neighborhood, who will be awarded at the Annual Meeting.
Since 1980, the award has honored individuals who serve the Park Hill community. The award honors the legacy of former Park Hill United Methodist Pastor and founding member of the Park Hill Action Committee, Dr. J. Carlton Babbs. Last year, the award went to GPHC Treasurer Tracey MacDermott, for what 2011 recipient Lynn Smith characterized as “the unimaginable amount of time she has spent working on the financials for GPHC.”
Residents in the Park Hill Community are invited to submit their nominations to the nominating committee by Tuesday, September 17.
Submit your nomination to director@greaterparkhill.org or by mail to 2823 Fairfax St., Denver CO 80207. Nominees must reside in Park Hill.
